Anyone else got this?
My hands are permanently weak and numb and I have pain all up both arms. My hands are swollen and I can no longer wear my rings. I've been like this since November - it came on suddenly.
I can just about cope with all that, but it hurts to drive, and hoover, I can't carry anything, push a supermarket trolley or hang washing out. I can't even take a phone call longer than a couple of minutes without severe pain in my arm.
I've not been offered any advice or treatment (diagnosed in passing by a consultant I was seeing for something unrelated), but work are getting me a special keyboard, although I have been assessed by our H &S officer and in her opinion this is not RSI.
Does anyone else know anything about this or what I can expect if I tackle the GP with it?
Thanks
